I am told we would lose all of our content (going back over 5 years) if we were to do so.

Does anyone have any advice? Will we really lose content if we go back to 4.x? Are there other forums out there that we could convert our data base to work with?

I am extremely frustrated!

I am attaching a screen shot of an error I get frequently when posting. vBulletin has seen this screen shot, but even with this message they are unable to fix the issue.

Thank you in advance for any advice.

I run a few vb 4 sites. Love 4. Tested 5 and it's just plain bad. Tested xenforo and I really like it. Honestly, I think your best bet is to switch platforms and import your vb5 data to xenforo. You won't lose any of the important content. (threads, posts, members, avatars, attachments, etc)
